Suicide FAQ by Graham Stoney
The Suicide FAQ is an attempt to raise awareness about suicide, so that
we can recognize and help other people in crisis, find how to seek help, or make better choices ourselves.
Suicides in the Bible
The Christian Bible documents seven completed suicides, but
doesn't appear to condemn these individuals. See the link
above for a short article describing these suicides.
Suicide Survivors
What is a suicide survivor?
Suicide survivors are family members and others who survive
following the death of their loved one by suicide. Suicide
survivors include spouses, significant others, parents,
children, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, lovers, friends,
co-workers, classmates, etc.
A conservative estimate suggests there are six suicide survivors
for every completed suicide. If there are approximately 31,000
suicides per year, that makes 186,000 new survivors every year.
